Dear teacher was Good mornina Brother ionos- inq all her Enqlish l and lV pupils in her cheerful fashion, so Snooper assumed that all was well and bounced on up to MISS SHOTT'S sophomore English class. There he was most hilariously received, hut after three minutes of danqlinq participles he left, feeling somewhat like one himself. Our little friend was tempted to pass up MRS. FOSTER'S lunior Enqlish room, but his Peri- scope friends wouldn't like that so he ven- tured in. Cr rather, tried to, for the room was jammed riqht up to the door in themes, hook reports, and notebooks. Shakina his head in canine dismay, Snoopf er closed the door and was decidina his next stop, when a racket arose in the lower hall. He made a hee-line for the steps and skid' ding to a stop, poked his head throuah the railinqs. Down below, a mass of jahhorina students was leayinq the huildinq, slamminti doors with qlass-shatterina hanas that hrouqht Hshhh-ina teachers to their doors. Hey, down there, Snooper lvarked, Whats up? We're qoinq to cooking class, the girls called hack, MISS BEATTIE is lettina us make pies today. Come on, Snooper, lim Baker shouted, Vlfe fellows are aoina up to manual traininalu But Snooper, think- inq of what MR. PORTER and a liuzz saw could do to his tail, declined the offer.

An unseen cornniotion issued from the Periscope head- quarters, but not feeling quite up to the ob! vious job which presented itself, Snooper decided he was needed elsewhere and left the stall to wallow in its own literary despair. Glaucing furtively across the hall to see if anyone was looking, our friend crept UP the DOWN stairs. reached the top safely and innocently dropped into MISS HARTEH'S rooin, 201. There she was all alone, an English book in one hand and a French book in the other, trying to think in both languages at once. Snooper had quite a good lrish broguo hiinself and wanted to stay awhile, but he had to complete his survey. A short stop in MR. EDMISTON'S room rather shocked hiin. Had all the students in that freshman rooin gone Sherlock Holmesu? No, they were only looking for X, as so niany boys and girls have done in years gone by. A bit perplexed, the little doggie soineliow got out of the rnaze and ran plumb into MISS RAY. who asked hiin if he liked his geornetry plane or solid. He just gulped, then dodged into MR. McCURDY'S room. Horrors! Here a grisly murder trial was being hold by the Civics class. For a mock trial it certainly was convincing, and Snoop- er didn't wish to get in the way of the accusing finger of the D. A., so he softly closed the door and sped down to COACH SHUKER'S history class. His ears fairly stood on end on hearing the furious debate which threatened to turn into a riot any min- ute. The calm functioning of MR. MAR- SHALL'S P. O. D. class of dignified 1?l seniors relieved his tense nerves somewhat and citing Day DAN MCCURDY, AB., lVl.Ed. D. LEVWS Sl-IUKER, HSS., Bid. CHARLES S.

'ref' doggie hero, so quickly he scuttled into the nearby gym. MR. MCCRACKEN was cheer- ing a vigorous game of basket-ball, While MISS GILLESPIE'S girls stood huddled about the door to the locker-room waiting for the key. Everyone wanted that ball at the same time. Once it whizzed past Snooper's left ear causing it to shiver in the icy blast. This is no place for me, said Snooper to himself. Guess l'll see what MISS WHITE'S folks are doing. Orderly confusion reigned there in the midst of drawings, clay models, make-up materials, and party fixings of all kinds. How does she do it? sighed our news-hound. A bit dazed at so much ac- tivity, he bumped against the door of Room 7 and was admitted by the ghost of MR. WOOD in the midst of balancing an equa- tion. A loud noise interrupted Snooper's visit here and sent him scurrying to the lab where MR. KEISTER and the chemistry class were gathering up the debris from the latest explosion. Fearing another such devasta- tion, he rushed up the stairs hunting an open door. This was to MR. MASTER'S room. Snooper dove into the first hiding place that presented itself. Sadly enough this was a container already full of the dissected parts of frogs fallen prey to the biology class. Again he made an exit of almost phenome- nal velocity and somehow managed to get back home in Room lOl before he dropped exhausted near his protecting deity, the Periscope Staff. That's enough reporting for ine, he gasped. From here on, folks, you do your own writing. 'Ll' .' LV v .
